The biggest contributor of the Chinese women's basketball team! Han Xu slapped WBNA in the face and won 3 awards, but was abandoned and caused controversy
In the 2023 Women's Basketball Asian Cup, the Chinese women's basketball team narrowly defeated the Japanese women's basketball team by 2 points in the final, winning the Asian championship again after 12 years, and also ending the 5-game consecutive championship of the Japanese women's basketball team. And Han Xu and Li Meng are the biggest contributors to the Chinese women's basketball team that can win the championship, of which Han Xu won 3 awards, namely the final MVP, the Asian Cup MVP, and was selected as the best team of the Asian Cup, but Han Xu's situation in the WNBA is more embarrassing and basically in a state of abandonment.
At present, the Chinese women's basketball team still has two people playing in the WNBA, namely Li Meng and Han Xu, of which Li Meng has gradually gained a foothold in the WNBA, and once qualified to start, in contrast, Han Xu's situation is more embarrassing, in the WNBA Han Xu rarely gets opportunities, and even garbage time can not play, to know that last season Han Xu averaged 16 minutes of playing time, but this season the average playing time is not even half of the previous season, and often does not let Han Xu play in several consecutive games, This has caused considerable controversy. In this Asian Cup, Han Xu's performance is very good, averaging 22 points, 11.8 rebounds and 2.6 blocks per game, all three of which are the highest in the game, shooting 61% from the field, shooting 9 of 14 from three-point range, shooting more than 60%, and averaging +17 per game. In the final, Han Xu's performance on the inside directly affected the victory or defeat of the game, shooting 12 of 17, including 2 of 2 three-pointers, scoring 26 points, 10 rebounds, 2 assists and 2 blocks, of which the points and rebounds were the highest in the game.
The 24-year-old Han Xu is on the rise, and there is a possibility of making greater breakthroughs in the future, and for an interior player like Han Xu, she actually has super projection ability, which can be called omnipotent on the offensive end, and also has a good performance on the defensive end, but the WNBA liberans do not attach importance to Han Xu, and if Han Xu continues to be abandoned, it may be abandoned, so I still hope that Han Xu will make plans early, and if there is a chance to play with other WNBA teams, you must seize it, Only in this way can you guarantee your future future.
Many fans also expressed their views on this: "Foreign coaches are not qualified to evaluate Han Xu, the most threatening No. 5 in Asia, and the strongest center in the world. "Han Xu's characteristics are indeed weak in the WNBA, not as good as Li Meng. But at the national team level, Han Xu can play any national team except the United States. "High school forwards can break through the inside line, can shoot three points outside, Han Xucheng is the first person in history, and the only hero of the Chinese women's basketball team to return to the peak!" "Through Han Xu's performance in this event and the relative dullness in the WNBA, it fully shows that women's basketball in the United States is a fault-line leader, and whether the Chinese team has Han Xu is just like whether the Chinese men's basketball team had Yao Ming in the past, and some can play with European and American strong teams, and there is no absolute difference of a level." Therefore, to protect Han Xu well, we must also specially train the domestic good insider. ”
"Han Xu couldn't play in the WNBA this season, mainly because the team brought in two centers of the US national team, she was originally a substitute, and now she is ranked as the fourth substitute, the team could have traded her, she herself could have asked for a trade, but so far none of this has happened."
